Chapter 13, Problem 7AP
A worker leans over and picks up a 90-N box at a distance of 0.7 m from the axis of rotation in her spine. Neglecting the effect of body weight, how much added force is required of the low back muscles with an average moment arm of 6 cm to stabilize the box in the position shown? (Answer: 1050 N)
